AS9145 Supplier PPAP – What Software Does and Does Not Work & Why

A discussion about lessons learned concerning companies trying to manage the Supplier PPAP process, including PLM, supplier portals, project management, EQMS, emails, and spreadsheets.

"We spent over five years and $5M trying to get three different PLM apps launched for PPAP, and they all failed.  It wasn’t until I heard this presentation that I understood why."

Key Highlights

 

Without understanding what your people need and how the process works, the software will fail.
This session will include advice on how to get your project funded.

This event will be RECORDED, and a copy of the slide deck will be provided.
